There is not a law specifically pertaining to Texas internet poker, although all forms of gambling are prohibited in Texas. However, online poker players in Texas don t necessarily need to live in fear.

There are not any cases of any person being charged with playing at an online poker site in Texas.

When Texas was first settled, part of it was considered an annex of Mexico, where gambling was prevalent. In addition, the new settlers were fond of gambling halls and saloons, and those corresponding industries thrived in the early years of the state. Gambling became even more popular after the Civil War, and famous gamblers like Doc Holliday hailed from that area.

The 1870s brought some crackdowns on gambling, but venues were still allowed to operate in Houston and other cities. In the latter part of the 20th century, popular opinion grew against gambling, and illegal gambling houses were shut down. Q. How is poker related to prostitution? A. Antiquated Texas laws still exist with support from current lawmakers that put gambling and prostitution, as well as obscene actions and materials, in the same category of illicit behavior that is detrimental to society. Playing on legal online poker sites is considered gambling in Texas, as in most of the United States, and is therefore prohibited in the numerous laws pertaining to common nuisances, and gambling even has its own section in the penal code as an offense against public health, safety, and morals. Q. Can Texans play poker with family and friends in their homes? A. Yes, but if a rake is taken from the stakes by the house, meaning the house is profiting from the games, it becomes illegal. Law enforcement doesnt monitor everyones home games, but they do frequently respond to tips about illegal games. Many raids have been conducted and resulted in arrests of players hosting poker games in their homes. Q. Didnt a U.S. Court ruling say that poker is a game of skill? A. Yes, but that decision could be appealed. In addition, it is not yet a standard precedent, and the ruling does not override state law.

Texas may still outlaw gambling, online Texas poker, and any other games it deems unfit for its citizens, and the state is fully within its rights to do so. Q.

Why is Rep. Barton fighting for rights that his own state doesnt have? A. Rep. Barton is an avid poker player who enjoys playing with friends and even in casino poker rooms in Las Vegas. He claims that his skills are not very good, but he believes in the right to play and understands that poker is a game of skill. He has taken a bold stance on the issue and is one of the most outspoken members of Congress on the issue of online pokers legalization, which may someday translate into poker, maybe even legal online poker sites, in Texas. Q. Isnt it ironic that Texas Holdem isnt allowed in Texas? A. Yes, it is.
